Majestic Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 (edited) Assuming all are fit, if you have to pick the best XI for World T20 at present, what would be your team? Also let's try to be realistic with what could be the team as there is no point making a XI by dropping Rohit, Kohli and Rahul. I will start with my team. This is of today. Things can obviously change but it won't change quickly in my case. I will try to stick with not much changes in my mind. Rohit Rahul Kohli Pant(wkt) Pandya( assuming he bowls or else no) SKY Jadeja/Washington D Chahar( Shardul if Chahar unfit) Shami Bumrah Yuzi Others: Shardul Thakur Washington Sundar Dinesh Karthik Umran Malik Kuldeep Yadav That's 16 names. Still guys like Harshal, Siraj, Bishnoi, Shreyas, Kishan are left unpicked. Pick your 16 man squad for WT20 as of now.

Majestic Posted April 20, 2022 Author Share Posted April 20, 2022 (edited) Preferably I would want SKY at 3 and DK at 6 in this XI but then I won't be realistic with my team selection as Kohli won't get dropped for sure. I am just trying to pick the best possible XI by keeping a realistic chances of right and probable selections.

zen Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 (edited) My preferred 16 man squad atm (assuming everyone is fit) Gill KL Tripathi - for advanced 360 degrees pitch hitting to take on the bowlers whether a wkt falls early or late. If he clicks great; if he gets out, the MO (#4-7) can play per the situation SDP SKY DK Sundar D Chahar Umran Natrajan Chahal Pant Agarwal or Samson (can do well in Aus and good fielders as well) Bumrah Kuldeep A pace bowling AR like Thakur, Harshal, etc. Edited April 20, 2022 by zen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuarantineTormentino Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 This is the squad I would want to see: KL Shaw SKY Hardik Pant DK Sundar Harshal Avesh Bumrah (c) Chahal Bench: Samson, Deepak Chahar/Shardul, Venky, Kuldeep, Umran But this is most likely the squad we are going to see: Rohit (c) KL Kohli Pant SKY Hardik Jadeja Deepak Chahar/Lord Bhuvi Bumrah Chahal Bench: Shami, Shreyas Iyer, Kuldeep, Sundar, Venky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Austin 3:!6 Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 (edited) Playing XI: Shaw Rohit SKY Rahul Pant (wk) Pandya Sundar Chahal Bumrah Siraj Natarajan Reserves: Gill Jadeja D.Chahar Umran Prasidh Mentor: King Kohli Mentor's mentor: Thala Dhoni I am inclined to include Karthik but considering WC will be in Australia and DKs form is mostly in Sub Continent, I would not pick him at this stage of his career. The same reason (WC in Australia) I would pick Rohit & Pant where they have historically performed well.

express bowling Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 (edited) 1. Rohit ( only because he is the captain ) 2. Shaw ( for quick starts ) 3. Rahul 4. Pant 5 .SKY 6. Hardik 7. Jadeja 8. Harshal .. Death bowler cum lower order hitter 9. Bumrah .. Death bowler cum enforcer pacer 10. Chahal 11. Prasidh .. for PP bowling .. he is ideal on bouncy tracks 12. Gill .. backup top order batter 13. Karthik .. backup middle order batter 14. Washington / Axar .. backup spinner all-rounder 15. Shardul .. backup pacer all-rounder 16. Umran .. backup enforcer pacer 17. Natarajan .. backup death bowler .... This team has batting till 8 .... There are 6 bowlers .... 4 pace bowling options .... Bowlers for all phases .... 2 spinners .... 1 dashing opener .... Big hitters from 2 to 8 .... This squad has 3 quick bowlers who maybe needed on some tracks in Australia Edited April 20, 2022 by express bowling BacktoCricaddict 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shouldn't be that few bad games and Tripathi is out of squad and so is Gill who get replace by Shaw or Kishan ( that too keeps changing) or you again go back to say, Ruturaj once he has couple of great knocks in IPL.

Team is per how I want it to play cricket Shaw & Kishan can be attacked with short balls on big OZ grounds so do not care what they do in IPL There is KL & Gill (both have played in OZ) to play a long inning, whoever has a good day, so Rutu is not needed If Tripathi, who appears to be not stats focused, does not do well, the squad has Agarwal/Samson (both have played in OZ) to play a similar role (#1-3 backup) Pant (also has OZ experience) as backup for MO (#4-7) or can come in if better form Edited April 20, 2022 by zen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They practice gratitude for what they have and self-care. Through spending meaningful time alone, they know who they are and establish healthy boundaries. Even when they experience self-doubt, they push themselves through. #copied express bowling 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Majestic Posted April 20, 2022 Author Share Posted April 20, 2022 (edited) This is hillarious. Yaha Rohit, Rahul, Kohli me se koi drop honge nahi and ye yaha Gill ko la rahe.. Bhai Gill ko agar le v aoge to wo Rohit, Rahul, Kohli se fast nahi khelega.. if all you have got is Gill, then we are better with Rohit, Rahul and Kohli instead in top 3.
